Summary: | 碩士 === 中原大學 === 文化資產研究所 === 96 === Abstract
This is a research conducted by a child who left far away from home and now comes back to hometown for community empowerment.
HuaZhai, as a well-attentive village which was ever listed as one of the 100 most endangered memorial sites in the world, is always focused on those ancient houses on the verge of collapse. Regarding the practical issues in the daily life, they are always understated. For a Wang-an child residing away from home for a long time, the memories of life closely connect the person and hometown. Therefore, “coming home” is to make up for the life experiences ever broken off, and to repair the linkage to hometown through practical actions, in order to figure out possible ways and directions for the sustainability of HuaZhai in the future. This article tries to represent action processes of the researcher in her hometown, hopefully to describe alterations of HuaZhai people from the local angle, and to aim at the whole action processes for examination.
In respect of such type of traditional village as HuaZhai, the focus of community empowerment should be put on “Life”. The future of village depends on sustainability of life. As a result, while talking about the conservation of HuaZhai ancient houses, we should pay more attention to the portion in the village closest to “human beings”, namely the community interactions existing in life. Contents of each chapter are arranged as follows:
Chapter One is to briefly explain the research motive and contents, as well as to propose several research thoughts including concepts of “Residing”, “Home” and “Small Symbiosis”, and experience review of community conservation.
Chapter Two is mainly to describe the research backgrounds including symbiosis environment, population outflow and tourism phenomenon of HuaZhai, as well as to analyze and orientate the author’s dual role of researcher and local.
Chapter Three is mainly to explain the structural composition of HuaZhai Homeland, including relationships among the ocean, the land and people, as well as to probe into influences resulting from the change of time.
Chapter Four is to describe those problems and reality that HuaZhai Village is currently facing, and to reiterate the meaning of conservation for HuaZhai Village.
Chapter Five is firstly to propose hypotheses in respect of those existing problems in the real situation, and further to advance the action plan. Chapter Six then focuses on descriptions of manipulation processes including the extension of action.
Chapter Seven is to examine research hypotheses made before the action, to proceed with manipulation analysis, and finally to propose the action strategy for further development.
As far as a HuaZhai person who comes back home is concerned, the real existence of HuaZhai and individual self is the very foundation for the bourgeoning of all actions. Everything, “already happened”, “on happening” and “will happen”, is such story the research will tell, which is to be continued.
